THE DELTA METAL.
Discovery of an Alloy of Considerable In.
 terest and Importance.

Discovery of an Alloy of Considerable In-
 terest and Importance.
 The discovery of alloys possessed of special properties has attracted the att tention of metallurgists from the earli- est times, whose constant attempts to form successful admixtures of two or more metals in varying proportions have produced many combinations of high value in industry and art. One of the most recent discoveries of this class has received the name of Delta metal, and is formed by the introduce ton of small percentage of iron into copper-zinc alloys.
 Nearly quarter of a century ago, Aich and Baron Rosthorn of Vienna perceived the high character possessed by this compound both as regards strength and tenacity. No practical results, however, followed their obser- vations, and the matter remained in abeyance till within comparatively recent period, when the difficulties ex- perienced by the early promoters in producing an admixture of reliable and absolutely uniform character were overcome after considerable research by the introduction of definite and known quantity of iron, also per centage of phosphorus; and in some cases tin, manganese and lead, when special qualities are required. The iron becomes chemically and not mere ly mechanically combined in the alloy, a fact proved by the inability of rust to corrode, and the magnetic needle to become attracted by the metal under consideration. Thus Delta metal was placed on the market as an article of commerce., carrying with it certain sterling characteristics.
 The specific gravity of Delta metal is S.4-that is to say. it differs but lit tie in weight from copper; while its melting point is eighteen hundred de- grees. In color, the alloy bears close resemblance to gold, whilst it pos sesses the great advantage, as we have said, of being untouched by rust or corrosion. This fact taken in con- junction with the excellent results at tained both as regards tensile strength and elongation, and the cost at which it can be produced being identical with that obtaining for the best brass, make it evident that future undoubt- ly lies before Delta metal.
 Amongst other advantages, the al- Toy can be worked both hot and cold, and can be rolled, stamped, cast forged or brazed with equal facility. The castings are par ticularly sound and free from blowholes-a frequent source of loss and annoyance with those made in brass-whilst possessing, it has been computed, three times the strength of brass castings.
 Delta metal can be applied to the following uses: parts of rifles, guns, torpedoes, tools for gunpowder-mills. parts of bicycles, gongs, etc.-former- " made of steel; in pumpwork, to supersede brass and extensively in ships fittings; in chemical manufact- ures, where other metals would rapid ly corrode; in shutters, for bolts and nuts, propellers, anchors, cranks. cog wheels; and in a large number of or namental and domestic goods, har- ness-fittings, spoons, forks, cups, fend- CTS, vases and candelabra, and large variety of other goods where hand some appearance is desideratum.

A hezor OF maidstone is in the DC

A bezor or maidstone is in the pos session of Robert R. Smith. who resides two miles west of PanaSolfkee, Fla. He found it in the thro at of deer which he killed eight years ago. The stone is about one inch wide and half inch thick. MT. Smith thinks it genuine maidstone, but has never el it used and of course does not know whether it would prove efficacious in cases of bites by poisonous insects or reptiles or rabid animals. The stone resembles very much the seed of a pawpaw, fruit which grows wild in some sections of the South.

BUY THE WHOLE BLOCK.
The New Public Building and the
Oglethorpe Barracks Property.

SAVANNAH, Oct. 15.-Editor Morning
Neius: Now that the location Of our new
public building appears TO have been de-
cided upon. would it not be well for the
United States government to get the whole
of the barracks property, instead Of confin-
ing itself to the part purchased, l20 feet on
Liberty street by 20 feet on Bull. which
may necessitate putting the building on, or
near to, the line of Bull street, instead of
setting it well back from that line, which
would be very desirable.
The gentlemen controlling the property
are public spirited, and would no doubt, if
asked by the Secretary Of the Treasury,
give the refusal of the balance of the prop
erty at the difference between the price
asked for the whole and that agreed upon
for the part purchased, until the next Con-
greSS has time to consider the advisability
of making an additional appropriation for
that purpose. Our Representative in Con-
gress would be in better condition to urge
an increased appropriation with such a re-
fusal of the property on file than he would
be If the price was an open question, which
might lead to a suspension of job to re-
lieve the treasury of part of its surplus.

vania Railroad Company for some time has
been unable to meet the constant demand
for cars made by shippers. 1t is stated that
the present shortage on the Panhandle sys-
tenn is about 900 cars per day, and on the
Fort Wayne system about 300 day. The
Pennsylvania Railroad Company last year
built II 600 freight cars, and vet this enor-
nous addition does not meet the present
need. OF course such demand for cars is
only temporary, and TO attempt to fill it by
building more cars would be to increase the
enormous number that will have to lie idle
when the fall rush is over. Much of the
trouble from shortage of cars is due to I'M
reasonable detention by shippers and con-
Meeting lines.
